Its no coincidence that CNN Cable is featuring a sort of 'Remember Rodney King Week,' especially since the Trayvon Martin case has eerily taken on the same format as those riotous days starting on April 29, 1992 that left over 60 people dead, and over 2000 injured, and causing over 1 billion dollars in damage. This was the reaction of King sympathizers who were reacting almost as badly as those who rioted in Memphis, Tennessee in April of 1968 when another King was assassinated - Martin Luther King.

I was training with the Marine Corps at the Naval Air Station in Memphis of that year, and the Marine Corps thoughtfully denied us the liberty to go out on the town for days, if not weeks after MLK was gunned down. Unfortunately, two African American kids died and 500 were arrested. Business were destroyed.

Rodney King was described as a muscular man weighing 220 pounds at about 6' 4". Rodney King left a residence high on alcohol and marijuana, allegedly, and charged out onto a L.A. freeway up to 90 MPH. Seeing the police in hot pursuit, King exited the highway into a residential neighborhood at speeds upward to 80 mph. He was weaving, speeding, and obviously had little control of the car. Rodney King later reported that he, "Had to evade the police," because a DUI would violate his parole for a former robbery conviction.

King was eventually stopped and corralled by a number of police men and women who ordered him to the ground. "King initially remained in the car. When he finally did emerge, he acted bizarrely: giggling; patting the ground; and waving to the police helicopter overhead."After assuming the prone position, King bolted up, throwing two officers off of his back and striking another officer. And, that's when the officers initiated the many beatings - which Rodney King did not seem to respond to - continually attempting to get off the ground - as he was taking the blows. Just as in the Trayvon Martin case, the blood thirsty liberal media (not much of Fox News back then) began airing on TV, over and over and over again, only the video footage which showed the beating- no before or after the beating video footage was presented, which could have explained how and why it was so difficult to restrain and arrest King.

Just as Al Sharpton is cruisin' to bruise certain ethnic people in hoped-for upcoming riotous behavior, the Rodney King riots extended far across the U.S., but in more isolated ways. I remember many reports back in the day,1992, where local blacks would beat local whites "For Rodney King." Not unlike today where Trayvon sympathizers/Zimmerman haters are reportedly beating such men as a Mobile, Alabama man who is in a critical care unit after being beaten to within an inch of his life by 30 thugs "For Trayvon. "Not a hate crime," according to police.

I and others, who have worked or volunteered in prisons or mental hospitals, know that even a wild, demon possessed girl of 120 pounds can do much harm to guards and orderlies as she flings and flails arms and legs at anyone who approaches.

The acquittal verdicts against four charged police officers were not to the satisfaction of the African American community, so they rioted, killed and robbed the South Central area of Los Angeles to the point that it never recovered.

Since the trials and riots, Rodney King has sort of straightened out after many brushes with the law and winning a multimillion dollar lawsuit against the city of Los Angeles. King became a celebrity, and for his many subsequent offenses against the law, he was untouchable. In fact, after hitting his wife with a car, Rodney was only given 90 days in jail. Rodney King has been often quoted, "Why can't we all just get along?" May I say that we could all get along, Rodney, if we all would obey the laws of the land and not speed through residential neighborhoods at 80 MPH hopped up on alcohol and reefer. It also might help that when we are arrested to take the prone position, obey commands, and not charge, strike, and push police officers.

Nearly everything Al Sharpton has touched has turned to crap: Tawana Brawley, Crown Heights, Freddy's Fashion Mart, Duke La Crosse, etc., and now Trayvon Martin. Will Al Sharpton drive his clownish clones to rioting if the Zimmerman trial does not turn out to his (or CNN's and MSNBC's) liking? I pray not.

I cannot think of a better community organizer than our founding President George Washington. His charge to organize thousands of non professional soldiers to fight a war against the well trained and well equipped Brit Redcoats had to be at least as difficult as President Obama's tireless efforts to round up fellow travelers on the south side of Chicago to harass banks for not lending to people who could not repay loans.

Although, we know nothing about Obama's early financing, except that it probably was gifted to him by a sheik, or two, George Washington married into money through his wife Martha, not unlike Senators John Kerry or John McCain. Washington thus inherited thousands of acres of land. President Washington was also awarded for his service, as a veteran, in the French and Indian war - adding thousands of more acres to his holdings. Even before the Revolutionary War, Washington was one of the wealthiest men in the Americas. Washington's wealth was at one time estimated to be well over 500 million dollars - much more than Mitt Romney's comparatively more meager estate.

As far as I know, George Washington did not receive millions of dollars in royalties for writing books about his "dreams" as an English citizen, or glamorizing a communist father from the old country that he never knew. Although Washington was the first man to sign the Constitution, he may not have been a Constitutional scholar on par with Barack Obama. Thank God.

Washington had quite a different take on taxes. There were practically no taxes in his time of a freer America, except for tariffs that charged other countries for importing goods. As long as the United States imposed taxes on foreign nations' goods, America ran a federal budget surplus. An overreaching "Commerce Clause" was not so interpreted at this early time in American history, because it would have been unthinkable to give the federal government unrestricted authority over such things as, say, national health insurance.

George Washington is oft quoted for his opposition to "Entangling Alliances," yet, he himself was not opposed to accepting gifts and loans from other countries, like France, which supplied gold,soldiers, and navies to the Revolutionaries during the war with Britain.

George Washington was the most honorable of men who, did not attend college, freed his slaves, loved his country, actively fought more than one war, united the country, prospered by working with his own hands and business, and did not vilify fellow Americans for not paying their "fair share" of taxes. President Obama to the contrary . . . . .

Hilary Rosen had an unusually hardened tone to her voice as she castigated Ann Romney on Anderson Cooper's CNN program the other night. What had this outspoken gay lady had against motherhood? She and her 3 year lesbian partner (at the time, as they are now split) have been outspoken for LGBTQ* rights, but also adopted twin girls, so you would think Ms. Rosen would have a handle on the sacrifice required to perform maternal duties. Yet, when I think of maternal instincts, neither she nor her former significant other seem to have that feminine, motherly quality required to raise other people's children. Their poor kids are now jointly possessed, and traded between the former lovers, as unfortunately, many heterosexual kids are today.

Even Anderson Cooper - another regular on the gayest channel - CNN - could pass as a more motherly mother (really, perish the thought) after viewing some of his girly-giggle fits. Nevertheless, Out Magazine lists Anderson as the Number 2 Most Powerful Gay In America. I don't think we heteros have that much to worry about if the gay agenda has only that kind of firepower. I'm not homophobic (afraid of them), and I do hope that they may straighten out some day as some former gays that I have known, but I think that there is a good chance that these in-your-face-gays are heterophobic, afraid that we God-fearing straights will not ever accept them as matrimonial mother/father potential. As the late, great Billy Preston sang, "That's The Way God Planned It."

Just the thought that gays do not believe a father and a mother is required to nurture and direct children is a sin. However, fathers have been relegated to the lowest rungs in society as unneeded and useless in our progressive societies. And, that goes for single, unmarried mothers like Madonna who is already raising a handful, daughter Lourdes, recently photographed smoking at the tender age of 15. Poor girl, no stable parentage.And, I don't know if Madonna is/has been GLBTQ, she has done a disservice to her daughter like so many Hollywood types as well as your run of the mill American teen girls, who get preggers, while not needing a husband/father.

Ms. Rosen's animosity toward stay at home mothers echoes back to Hillary Rodham's (before she rebranded herself as Hillary Clinton for presidential campaign reasons) demand that she not be thought of as an inferior cookie baker - like some maudlin female country singer, who would "stand by her man." In fact, I don't think Hillary has been with her man for over 15 years. But Hilary Rosen has a very hard edge to her, which is typical of the zealous, chauvinistic gay crowd eg., Rachel Maddow. Speaking of which, Hilary's former life partner, Elizabeth Birch, (of the three year relationship) has been at the cutting edge of the Gay Agenda, heading such entities as the Gay And Lesbian Task Force as well as a leading attack dog for the Human Rights Campaign.

I am not at all phobic about the homos, but we should all be concerned that they have an ever open invitation into our Little Caesar's (ie., Obama, see $40,000 per pizza fundraiser hosted by Little Caesar's heiress) White House, despite the President's earnest profession in favor of the Defense of Marriage Act. Which, of course, means that he has flipped, and is now having Eric Holder argue against the DOMA in Federal Court. Hilary Rosen has been recorded visiting the White House over 30 times. Another concern, ne homophobia, is that Google, which prides itself on it progressive gay friendliness may use its considerable clout to shut down argumentative discourse, which would mean The End even for such a multi-billion dollar internet conglomerate. Write it down. I have tracked a number of gay-pushing companies that got hit big time, financially, for this reason coupled with other very poor business decisions. Just one is K Mart, which just prior to "reorganization," hired the Queen of Nice, Rosie O'Donnell as its spokesman. What possessed them? Same with Cover Girl asking Ellen DeGeneres to represent womanhood in its advertising. Even Oprah would have been a better pick.

I really have no animosity toward gays, and would condemn any wholesale persecution - which normally arises in societies throughout history. Yet, we cannot sit back and watch our society further decline because of our fear of being called "homophobic," which may be termed homophobicphobia, because we object to the practice, just as much as, evidently, Hilary Rosen and comrades condescend toward stay at home traditional mothers.

*The "Q" in questioning refers to the LBGTQ agenda to allow for children to Question their gay/straighthood at the earliest of ages. "I" for Identity will soon be added to the mix, so that those who would like to, or have switched their sexual identities, may also be represented by LBGTQI groups. Poor, poor public grade school kids who will have to memorize all this.

PS Hilary Rosen's new partner may have some effect on children across the country. According to PJ Media: "Ms. Rosen’s current partner is Randi Weingarten who happens to be a powerful union boss as President of the American Federation of Teachers."

PPS The above contradicts the Wikipedia entry that describes Ms Weingarten's current partner since 2007 as psychotherapist Liz Margolies: "On October 11, 2007, Weingarten publicly announced she is a lesbian. Weingarten introduced Liz Margolies, 54, a psychotherapist and health care activist, as her partner while accepting the Empire State Pride Agenda's 2007 Community Service Award by Christine Quinn.

Pulitzer Prize-winning Eugene Robinson of the Washington Post has joined the fray with black leaders across the country who are calling for the lynching of Hispanic George Zimmerman for his self-defense shooting of Trayvon Martin.

Robinson, a professorial racialist akin to Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan and Al Sharpton, also rushed to judgment in 2006 when multiple white Duke lacrosse players were falsely accused of the hate crime of raping a black stripper at a college party. Robinson remarked back then, “It’s impossible to avoid thinking of all the black women who were violated by drunken white men in the American South over the centuries.”

Statistically, it is an extremely rare occasion for a white person to murder a black, as opposed to blacks perpetrating crimes against whites, yet the crimes of blacks killing blacks are ignored by liberal blacks as well as by white liberals, who must presume that black-on-black crime is a constant that must be accepted and cannot be remedied.

The press has not done well to depict the baby-faced Martin as the innocent kid. It is now known that one witness has testified that the 6-foot-2-inch Martin was on top of a crying Zimmerman, flailing away, breaking Zimmerman’s nose and bloodying his head, before Martin was fatally shot. To racialists, it is the perfect storm, but to the rest of the country it is pure and simple media bias of the most disgusting sort.
